[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of these few months. Because not everyone is into parties, ok.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

[ KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK ]

I heard you were screening your calls. [ #blunt as fk ]

[notaroundme]

[She moves to the door and pulls it open, lips pressed together.]

Something like that.

[Hi Kat.]

[shootfirst]

C'mon. [ she grabs her arm the second she opens the door ] We're going out.

[notaroundme]

[Wow this is...the exact opposite of what she wants.

But she also doesn't have the heart to fight about it right now.]

Where?

[shootfirst]

I'm gonna settle for 'outside your hole'.

[notaroundme]

There's nothing wrong with my room, Kat.

[She is so uncomfortable right now.]

[shootfirst]

And there's nothing wrong with fresh air, either.

[notaroundme]

[Outside, then? That's better than going somewhere inside the castle.]

Alright, fine.

[shootfirst]

[ she leads her towards the back door down the halls, glancing back at her as they go ] We should go invade Lan's woods. That'll learn him.

[notaroundme]

Are you sure it's a good idea for me to potentially piss someone off?

[Invasion does not sound good, Kat. :|]

[shootfirst]

Are you kidding? Pissing Lan off is like a sport around here.

[notaroundme]

I don't think I've ever met him.

[Following, following. :/]

[shootfirst]

That's because he lives out in the woods all alone, because that's healthy. I don't know why Wynn lets him get away with that crap. He acts like he owns the whole forest.

[notaroundme]

Well, unless he's shooting anyone who wanders onto his 'property,' I doubt there's much to get mad at him for.

[shootfirst]

He's more the stabby sword type actually. He's a paladin.

[notaroundme]

He still sounds very 'get off my lawn.'

[shootfirst]

Comes with old age, I guess. God help us if we ever get there.

[notaroundme]

Hey, Des is as old as they come, and he doesn't do that. [A beat.] Alright, maybe I guess he has a little of that sometimes too.

[She's mostly teasing.]

[shootfirst]

Ya think? [ they reach the edge of the woods and she nods in ] C'mon. We can handle Gus' bear.

[notaroundme]

Right. A bear. Of course.

[Whut. No, really, whut?

At least this is...getting her mind off other shit. Good job, Kat.]

[shootfirst]

What? It's his familiar. Not everybody sticks to cats and owls and shit. Er, I guess 'animal companion', whatever. The poor man's familiar.

[notaroundme]

So like...Amaranth, then?

[The idea of familiars is still sort of strange to her, okay. Especially ones that are freaking bears.]

I suddenly feel like Dorothy Gale.

[Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my!]

[shootfirst]

Who does that make the Wicked Witch?

[notaroundme]

Or the Wizard? He at least wasn't the bad guy. Or there's always Glinda, the good witch.

[shootfirst]

Hey, you're talking to a good witch.
